There's no place like home for Boca and what we learned in South America this week

Boca Juniors racked up another victory at the Bombonera this weekend to continue their quest to regain the Primera Division title the Xeneize lifted back in December 2015. Taking three points away from their fearsome home fortress, however, has proved rather more difficult this year.

Goals from Gino Peruzzi, Cristian Pavon, Walter Bou and an own goal from Gaston Aguirre gave Guillermo Barros Schelotto's side a 4-0 victory over Temperley on Saturday, lifting the side to third in the table behind Estudiantes and Newell's Old Boys. It was the coach's seventh league win in 10 at the Bombonera since taking over at the start of 2016, while the former Xeneize striker remains unbeaten on home turf.
